Khurasan, y yu torment me?
I literally JUST bought a handful of minis from Khurasan (none painted yet of course)... and they come out with more stuff I desire.
15 mm Deep Ones?! WANT. Just the thing to terrorize your troops on any expeditions that violate the Benthic Treaty. Of course, I bought some 25mm Deep Ones a while ago, and haven't painted them up yet...
Riflethings are almost done, by the way. So sloooow :P

Mi casa...
Well, As part of the Real Life Package TM it looks like we're buying a house:
(Artist's impression)
I normally try not to put too much personal stuff on this blog because, frankly, nobody cares. But one small reason I'm excited about this move is that I'll finally be able to replace this
Old painting space
with this
New painting space
Actually, right now I don't even have "a space" at all, and all my stuff lives in a little wheeled cart so I can paint at the kitchen table and then put it away. So needless to say I am looking forward to this :)

Some works in progress...
The Doctor's TARDIS
35 mm
The TARDIS. It's blue. When it's done, it'll be less-patchy blue, with a nice base.
Riflethings
15 mm
I thought I'd do these guys a little differently, to show them working as a team. Or, you know, hanging around a trash barrel, but whatever.

A couple of Things
Riflethings
15 mm
Just a couple of 15mm minis. I have two more of these Things to finish up... perhaps next week? I have a Khurasan order coming in with some oil barrels I'd like to add as base dressing. (I also finally ordered these, which I'm looking forward to painting... and I see there are some new Riflething sculpts available, if I want to expand my collection)
My available "hobby time" has settled down to ~ 5:30-6:30 am, which is nice because I've got a big cup of coffee in front of me, the house is quiet, and my wife and kidlet are asleep. The downside is that absolutely nothing noisy can be done, which rules out, eg. listening to some inspirational Bolt Thrower, or firing up the Dremel to grind off some attached bases :P
Also, for the record, I'd like to thank javi for producing this amazing piece in his inimitable style:
For those familiar with the game Half-Life, it's a... nose-crab. Not really any less parasitically horrific than the standard headcrabs, IMO.

Riflethings, Take 2
Riflethings
15 mm
I got a start on the rest of my Khurasan Riflethings. Nothing too exciting, the rest of these won't have quite the "hero" base that the first one did. It's neat, but looking at it in my display case, it's almost diorama-like and less like what one should put on members of a squad of minis (even for display). I think the last two Riflethings will be based together on a larger base, just to be different.

We come from the land of the ice and snow
Robot Yeti
28 mm
In between probing the mysteries of cancer biomarkers and looking after No Such Agency Jr-ette, I managed to paint this up. It's a Yeti from the 1967 Doctor Who serial "The Abominable Snowmen"... but I guess you could use it as a regular Yeti, too.
Alas, I think this guy really got his mother's hips.
"No, YOUR line is 'AAAAAAGH!'"
